Great Wall of China Trek for LOROS, 19 October 2024
In memory of Jessica Melbourne
In October 2024 we will attempt to trek for five days along The Great Wall of China, covering 35km all in aid of LOROS Hospice. Please dig deep and support those taking on this tough challenge supporting patients and their families.

Story

We as a family will be taking on The Great Wall of China across the course of 9 days to raise money for LOROS. Covering nearly 40k and trekking up to 8-hour days.

We will be holding many fundraising events throughout the year including our upcoming Curry Night, with all donations going to this amazing charity.

This is all in memory of our beautiful Jess, who bravely battled cancer last year and her beloved husband Jake. We promised to continue to fundraise for LOROS in memory of them both.

LOROS is a charity whose aim is to enhance the quality of life of adult patients with cancer, progressive neurological conditions, and end-stage organ failure for whom curative treatment is no longer possible. They deliver free, high-quality, compassionate care and support to patients, their family and carers.

The compassionate care provided by the dedicated team of doctors, nurses, kitchen staff, cleaners, counsellors, treatment therapists, and volunteers is truly exceptional.

Thank you for all donations and continued support by all.

James, Louise, Harry & Megan x
